Brief Answer:
Acneform lesion, apply topical antibiotic

Detailed Answer:
I have reviewed the attached photograph and it seems to be acneform lesion.
If I was your treating doctor I would recommend you to apply topical antibiotic like nadifloxacin cream on the affected areas twice daily for 7-10 days.
This should resolve it.
